We carry out eaves beam and gutter repairs in Hayes and across the UB3 area. The eaves beam is the frame around the base of a lantern, and most designs have a drainage channel inside it that lets water out through small weep slots.
Is it time for eaves beam and gutter repairs?
- Moss, leaves or grit visible along the base
- Standing water in the eaves channel
- Staining on the lining just below the eaves
Common causes we find
Blocked weep slots
Debris settles at the eaves and blocks the outlets, so the channel fills and overflows inward.
Trees and moss
Lanterns near trees fill with leaves every autumn and need regular clearing.
Covering Hayes and nearby
Sun and UV do more damage than rain on many lanterns here: brittle ridge caps, chalky finishes and hardened gaskets. They're cheap to replace before they let water in.
London's extensions are often tight to neighbouring walls and roofs. Where a repair needs access over a neighbour's property, we'll tell you in advance so you can arrange it.

Guide prices for eaves beam and gutter repairs in Hayes
Most eaves beam and gutter repairs jobs come in between £175 and £395 ex VAT (£210–£474 including VAT), per lantern. Towers or scaffold, where needed, are priced into the quote. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Do you need permission in England?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings need listed building consent from the local council for alterations, and conservation areas can have extra controls; like-for-like repairs are treated differently from changes, so check with the council's conservation officer first.
